<p> Hi, Martin!</p>
<p>You have explained it very well. People everywhere are understanding these simple truths, and from understanding comes power.</p>
<p> I am so optimistic because I saw the awakening of humanity and the beginning of right human relationships as already done in a vision in 2008. Since the last weeks of December I'm feeling it inside the bones, as a physical feeling that fills me with childlike happiness and vitality every morning. Of course this is not an objective proof,…</p>

<p>You have explained it very well. People everywhere are understanding these simple truths, and from understanding comes power.</p>
<p> I am so optimistic because I saw the awakening of humanity and the beginning of right human relationships as already done in a vision in 2008. Since the last weeks of December I'm feeling it inside the bones, as a physical feeling that fills me with childlike happiness and vitality every morning. Of course this is not an objective proof, unless it is taken as a symptom of insanity.</p>
<p> Moreover, I know from personal experience that Ben Creme's statements are true <a href="http://www.share-international.org/">http://www.share-international.org/</a> although I don't repeat his words. He speaks about the World Teacher, but I call Maitreya "the gentle teacher", with no capital letters, because I know of his gentleness. Ben speaks about the Declaration Day and I call that day "the Big Hug" day because I'm feeling it as a hug, a great healing hug embracing all humanity.</p>

<p>Ferran, you have to expand on that statement. As I see it, Capitalism is connected to the economic growth paradigm. We cannot have infinite growth in a world with limited resources. So, that form of Capitalism is doomed. Also, Capitalism leads to concentrating wealth and power in the hands of a few. That is not compatible with true democracy, where social equality (everyone has a voice and influence) is an important factor. Autonomy of societies has been curtailed by the current system. It…</p>

<p> Hi, friends!</p>
<p> I don't have much time now, so I'll try to summarize: the key question, as I see it, is : are true democracy and capitalism compatible? And the answer it's NO.</p>
<p> We have seen in 2011 that in many countries of the world have emergent movements that demand true democracy. Most probably these movements will be stronger in 2012. This happens at the same time that the financial system is collapsing. The outcome is the worldwide triumph of people, aware in the first…</p>

<p>Turmoil is part of the process, as it has always been in our history, but this turmoil will be small compared with the revolutions in history books. </p>

We like to pretend we've not been invited to play. It keep us safe, this belief. When this belief falls away, we take our seat at the table - for we all have a seat at the table - and we shuffle, then deal. Until then, life's a raw deal.

<p>I feel the system, because its foundation is laid on greed, should be demolished and rebuilt. But that requires turmoil, which we are not prepared for.</p>
<p>David Korten does show an alternative, peaceful transitional path, but I have my doubts whether that path can always remain peaceful.</p>
